Getting Queen Lizzy 2 back in the water after the haul-out — then wandering a multihull boat show pretending we're not shopping for a bigger boat. Sailing Queen Lizzy — liveaboard life aboard our Bali 4.6 catamaran in the Mediterranean.

The boat goes in the water. Then it comes out. Then in. Then out. | Launching a catamaran after winter, two leaks and a tractor that wasn't lined up. Sailing Queen Lizzy — liveaboard life aboard our Bali 4.6 catamaran in the Mediterranean.

Galopin goes from gale force winds to super mega yacht haven in OneOcean Port Bell marina in Barcelona. Little 40ft Galopin is surrounded by yachts 50m and more, including the world' largest private yacht Dilbar, at 152m! My brother Stephane comes to join me and we visit the city, and I finally...
Galopin is finally ready to sail the seas. We make some final adjustments and I stock up on French food before setting off. Me and the gang go to a French Super Bowl party, and watch the end of the game inside Galopin. Two days later I'm off down the Catalonian coast at dawn. Winded Voyage has ...
Good old Galopin is refitted, renewed and refreshed! We finish most of the final details and test him out in hospitality and on the water. he's happy, and so am I!

The mast goes up, and so do I go up on the mast. I have to get used to it, as well as many other challenges we face being sailors. My sailboat refit education with Master Daniel is almost over. Bix and the gang are back to help me raise the sails, and we go and test out an out-of-date life raft surv...
Finally back in the water after 6 weeks on dry dock. But before then we finish with swing keel, polish and paint the hull with anti-fouling. Then the big crane lifts Galopin to its natural environment.

It's the holiday week but we're not on holiday. Got to keep on keeping on with the swing keel which I get delivered by Daniel the man of steel. He takes me to his shop to make custom parts and Dan & Dan manage to fit the 350kg keel in place. Bix is back with his family and we bring in ...
Since I’ve departed on my Winded Voyage, I’ve become reacquainted with sayings like “Getting Even Keeled” in the context they originated. In this case getting even keeled really means getting a new balanced keel for Galopin. It hasn’t been easy, but we’re getting there. Daniel, the one that looks li...
The eternal question of shaving or not. Will I or will I not? The beard does not keep me from continuing on with Galopin's projects. It's almost the holidays and my Dear friend Daniel not only helps but is kind enough to invite me to his holiday party with a genuine French touch.
Please m...
Life on the hard it certainly is. I even got locked in one day and had to make a run for it. And got down and very dirty in that keel pit. But it's not a very big sacrifice knowing I'm going to have a really sound boat. And when I want to go I'm gonna take off
Living the dream of sailing off into the sunset means that sometimes you have to live high and dry. Galopin is on the dry dock and so am I. While we’re getting him ready to take on the oceans, home is on Galopin up on stilts. The retractable keel was an issue which needed attention, and it’s a good ...
I'm not the only one to have a dream of sailing off into the sunset. Here you'll meet several others who are preparing their boat for a big voyage. And I'm continuing to do so my myself. It's a big refit job, and seems to never end, but in the end it will be well wort it, even be...
Work, work, work. After a quick stint in Switzerland to do a paying gig, I board a train to my dear Galopin to do more work. And thanks to Neptune, I’m working with one of the best boat pros in the area. As far as I’m concerned, Daniel is probably the best in the world. Certainly in my world. His at...
This episode is far from distant shores and beautiful people. It’s about getting into the inside of things. Galopin is like a living being with a wired and tube network that gives him life. His inner workings were tired and needed refreshing. In comes my friend Daniel who seems to take a liking to G...
We finally were sailing downwind. I had prepared my spinnaker three times and put it away. But third try was the one. That was quite a journey and learning experience.
Later a whole other journey begins. The insides of Galopin are opened up. This when a new character comes into the story. Daniel a ...
Once upon a time there was a tortoise and a hare. Each on their sailboats, they raced along the coast of Catalonia. The tortoise was lagging behind the hare, but made steady progress to catch up. Moral of the story, if you want to be a sailor, don't be afraid of failure.

My first time coming into a big port alone. And not just any port, Barcelona. It's amazing to sail into the heart of a city. You step out of your little floating home to walk around the city streets and shake out your sea legs. And then you get back into your vessel and continue on your journey...
It seemed the sea and weather played with us. Rocked our boats and trapped us in Palamos for hours. We made the best of it and continued down the coast the next day. It was a nice sail until my engine refused to start. Another test to pass. Getting into port under sail only. We got the engine fixed ...
In my opinion, there is no better way to learn about your boat and how to sail it than by doing it alone. I set out for this challenge with a 20 knot wind in my face. Heeling at close reach, I had to go to the bottom of the mast to take reefs. It was the first time I put put on my life jacket and ha...
Winded Voyage Season 2 is off on new adventures. With my sailing license in hand I go back to Galopin in Port Leucate France to set off on an key challenge to my sailing apprenticeship. Solo sailing for two weeks. I’m supported by co-star “Bix”, a colourful character with a French southern twang and...
Finding peace and solitude by going solo is one thing, but when sailing you’ll inevitably find friends. They’re generally all helpful, generous, knowledgable, interesting, brave and congenial. We’ll meet a few of my new friends that help, party and work. Even show me where to jaunt for Tapas in neig...
We went back for more sailing out in the sea. With more trial and error now I'm getting a little more familiar with Galopin. The sea was littered with jelly fish that looked like garter belts for can-can dancers. And it rained like it never rains in the south of France, so we went to discover m...
The winch saga continues in Episode 15, Good & Bad Winches. For a boat so well maintained, it was a surprise to see the winches had been so neglected. But it's all part of my Winded Voyage to get familiar with winches and their functionality. I took some time to go and see the winded nieghb...
